Hello beloved community

My name is William X, currently a project manager of the Open Web Sandbox & council of @CommunityDAO. With recent great initiatives in the Near Ecosystem, I find it’s time to propose a NEAR MEET in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. This will be an opportunity for Vietnamese who are working within the ecosystem to meet up, discuss & share values, at the same time spread the fire & encourage those who are interested in evolving to the NEAR ecosystem to participate. This meet up, with a modest scale, will be a step for me & other Vietnamese fellows to kick off potential collaboration & hopefully onboard more Vietnamese people working with us.

1. GOALS AND OBJECTIVES

  • Introducing Vietnamese Community Manager Group (CM NEAR Vietnam)

  • Cross discussing

  • 3 sharing topics:

    • Working experience: An Open Discussion (leading by @HaiVu CM Near VN)
    • Near Insider’s DAO/GUILD graduation journey (@near.insider)
    • Partnership Calling: The Open Web Sandbox Pitch Deck (@williamx)

  • Brainstorm ideas for future Meetup events and cross-collaboration opportunities

2. EXPECTED OUTCOME

  • Create awareness about CM NEAR Vietnam group. A group dedicated to any Vietnamese working inside of Near ecosystem to open discussion, catch up with latest events, and propose partnership opportunities
  • Mutual understanding about different roles/projects/internal workflow of the ecosystem through sharing topics
  • Create direct awareness about the partnership opportunity with OWS

3. METRICS TO MEASURE SUCCESS

  • Minimum 20 people attend
  • New members to join CM NEAR Vietnam Group (Now has 10)
  • Plan for 1 Follow-up NEAR meets event
  • Create a strong bond among community moderators
  • Potentially a partnership to be proposed

4. PLANNED TOPICS:

  • Introduce Vietnamese community managers from different projects of the NEAR ecosystem

  • Sharing #1: Working experience: An Open Discussion (Mr. Hai, CM Near VN)

  • Sharing #2: Near Insider’s DAO/GUILD graduation journey (Near Insider)

  • Sharing #3: Open Web Sandbox – Pitch deck, Partnership opportunities & open call for projects/guilds requests (William X, Project Manager of the Open Web Sandbox)

  • Follow-up discussion about Community DAO & call to join

5. REACH & TARGET AUDIENCE

I also have the ambition to gather people & make a Local City SubDAO of Community. Let’s see if we have enough traction & engagement to do that in the very near future.

Hi, the poll for this proposal will expire in 30 minutes, I have tried many times to contact other @marketingdao-council.

Tagged council 1 day before the expiration day, sent a direct message before 3 hours, everything I could do. Should I know what else do I need to perform to get my poll approved?

Actual Costs:

The actual cost basically aligns with the approved proposal. 1 change made:

We couldn’t set up a catering service due to the limited budget that I have proposed ($100). Hence, this amount was combined to the swag for attendees with each pack including (1) NEAR cup & (1) NEAR Coffee Filter. ($10/pack x 25 pack = $250)

Acknowledgement

The meet was successfully created an opportunity for Near enthusiasts to meet and share.

Special thanks to

@jlwaugh for your guidance & support on creating this Meet Up

The 2 projects that have been successfully granted by NF are Up-Fi Network and Pawn Protocol, with the sharing about their journey & experience for interested outside projects & potential partners.

The meet hadn’t been a successful event without the support of the community, councils & advisors of @marketingdao-council, projects, guilds, DAOs and all participants. We had a great meet-up!

Last word, the budget for photographers wasn’t proposed in this proposal. To have those beautiful pictures, the media team was sponsored by Cointap.Network, an outside project that is interested to learn more about NEAR)
